Adaptogens - Food For Your Adrenals
Are you burned out? Have you ever said you’ve felt wasted? Worn out? Exhausted?
If so, you probably have adrenal fatigue - an ongoing condition of nervous system overload. Your sympathetic nervous system has gone into hyper drive and isn’t communicating with your parasympathetic. The result is being locked into fight-or-flight, a constant battle living life from a standpoint of fighting for survival. Too much of that and you'll get burned out with adrenal fatigue.
Did you know there have been autopsies done on people with chronic illness and their adrenals have shrunken to the size of a peanut? Similar autopsies done on healthy people who have died accidentally show adrenals the size of a walnut. What’s the difference? Chronic stress and adrenal fatigue!
Adrenal fatigue doesn’t just target your adrenals.
We tend to think things happen in isolation but it’s never the case, especially when it comes to stress and your glandular system. One of your other glands has to take up the slack for your underperforming adrenals and it’s usually your thyroid gland.
